Julie Morin, Assistant Executive Director
Julie brings approximately 30 years of experience in healthcare, with 20 years of management and operational leadership experience to Susan Bailis. She has extensive experience working for both, the for-profit and non-profit sector. She has a proven track record of successfully operating, creating and executing operational standards for multiple diverse organizations, with extensive experience in long term care, memory care, geriatric care and residential services. Her goal is to ensure that she is making a positive impact in the lives of the residents within the Susan Bailis community.
She is a mother to three beautiful daughters, is family oriented and often spends most of her time with her family. She takes pleasure in spending time outdoors, from relishing the beautiful beaches of Maine along with the beautiful views of the White Mountains of New Hampshire.
Yalinnette Velazquez, Resident Care Director
Yalinnette (Yali) graduated from Bay State College with a paralegal degree. After a few years, she decided to go back to school and get her nursing degree. As a single mom, she wanted to provide a better life for her son (who is now in college).
Throughout her now 17-year long nursing career, Yali worked in a variety of settings such as Alzheimer’s, HIV/HEP C, and Pediatrics units. For 7 years, she worked at a non-profit community health center in Salem, MA, which offered services to a very diverse community regardless of their ability to pay. She grew with the organization, from being a float nurse to the practice manager. It was very fulfilling to help patients feel at ease knowing they were getting great care without having to worry about payment. Now, as the Resident Care Director at Susan Bailis, she returns to the senior demographic she served 17 years ago when she worked at an Alzheimer’s/Dementia unit in an Assisted Living Facility as a Wellness Nurse and in a nursing home
